For as short as the time I've been Boating I seen more than I need to on the water, I'm out there to get away from the idiots of the world and craziness! DUI's, overdoses, cardiac assists. When I bought my first boat, I towed a boat in every 4th of July from 2005 thru 2011. My buddy would drop me in and I'd meet him back at the dock, after the second year he'd just leave the golf cart at the dock cause he figured I was towing another boat in. Most people extremely thankful, a few idiots who just had to much to drink and couldn't put the lanyard back in, yes that happened! One quick story, had drunk lady on a rental boat Ram the back of an elderly couple Because they asked them to move over in the channel as they almost hit them, girl turned around and literally ran their boat up over the back of the boat and made physical contact with them. The misses is still in a wheel chair and this happen about 4 years ago. She (the rental driver) was obviously under the influence and was prosecuted. I'm fine with drinking, just don't be the one behind the wheel.
